!gaming is a community for gaming noobs through gaming aficionados. Unlike !games, we don’t take ourselves quite as serious. Shitposts and memes are welcome.

Our Rules:

1. Keep it civil.


Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only.


2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry.


I should not need to explain this one.


3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.


Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.


4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month.


Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

October 28 new Elite Dangerous Odyssey patch lets gooo.. Fuk Frontier tho for the ARX inflation and gatekeeping new ships behind it tho lol.

One of them is for rich kids though, who have overpowered gaming rigs, and money to throw away on fictional space ships. Sure Elite Dangerous has the whole galaxy, but when it just repeats itself, it kind of is just as good as one solar system really.

I get the issues with ED but like.. are we really comparing a finished and released game with star citizen?

The new SCO Frameshift Drives removed the tedium from Supercruse travel. Finally, boost while in Supercruse.

Also added new maximums to jump ranges vs even the previous community goal/tech broker V1s FSDs. For faster overall jumping as well.

Flying in E:D is worth the price alone.

Is this a big patch or something?

They ~~re-did~~ reskinned power play, so all powers have all modules. Just at different ranks. And no more rank decay.

New early access exploration ship gate kept behind premium ARX but, after 3 months buyable with in game credits.

Supposedly a completely new game feature coming.....
